Admissions to Lower Schools
Children are normally admitted to school at the start
of or during the reception year, that is the school year in which
they become 5. Parents of children born between 1 September 2007
and 31 August 2008 who are due to be admitted in September 2012
will be required to apply to the local authority for a place in the
reception class. You can view the booklet for
parents, Starting
School Booklet (PDF document opens in
new window), and download a copy of the Starting
School application
form (PDF document opens in new window),
but we strongly recommend that you apply for a place using the
online facility. If you
do not have access to the internet, you can collect an
application form from your local school. Please do
not use the online facility or this application form if
you are applying for nursery place - you should contact the school
for information about the application process.
The closing date for receipt of applications in the
September 2012 academic year is 15 January
2012.
If you require any advice about applying for a school place, please
